KXIP will be aided by Kumble's knowledge and experience: Lee
Former Australia speedster Brett Lee heaped praise on former India captain Anil Kumble and stated the latter will do well as head coach of India Premier League (IPL) side Kings XI Punjab (KXIP).
Mumbai: Former Australia speedster Brett Lee heaped praise on former India captain Anil Kumble and stated the latter will do well as head coach of India Premier League (IPL) side Kings XI Punjab (KXIP).
Kumble, last year, had signed a two-year deal with KXIP and will take charge of the team during the 13th edition of the IPL, which is scheduled to be played from September 19 to November 10 in the UAE.
Lee, who played for Kolkata Knight Riders and Kings XI Punjab in the IPL, stated players will be helped by Kumble's vast experience of the game as they search for their maiden title.
"Having someone like that (Kumble) in terms of the mix of the team and certainly the squad will be invaluable," Lee said on Star Sports show Cricket Connected.
"The knowledge, the experiences, will definitely help. Kings XI need to win, they have got a great squad, they have got a wonderful team that can definitely get close and close but they have not got over the line yet, so, I'm actually waiting for that to happen. "A great franchise to play for, I put up my hand-up and say that was a lot of fun to play for that franchise," he added.
